Chocolate hearts in a jam jar

At this time of year I like to get crafty and one of my favourite things to do is hand make Christmas presents. I really wanted to make chocolates this year so I decided to give it a go and it turned out really well..

Ingredients

Different coloured chocolate for melting (I bought my chocolate in Hobbycraft but I can’t find it online-it’s called ‘Candy drops’) I got pink, white and purple.

1. Divide colours and melt chocolate in the microwave for about 30 seconds 2. Pipe melted chocolate into moulds 3. Level off chocolate with the back of a spoon 4. When almost set scatter non-pareils on top

Leave them to set in a cool place then pop them out of the moulds. Next you can add them to your jam jar and decorate it as you wish. I finished mine off with a piece of material tied with a ‘Merry Christmas’ ribbon.

*This post is for the Jam-J Art campaign that is putting together a list of creative uses for jam jars. Why not have a go and see how creative you could be at recycling your old jam jars!
